Jawaan Taylor News: Officially released by Kansas City

The Chiefs released Taylor on Wednesday, Pete Sweeney of The Kansas City Star reports.

The move saves the Chiefs $20 million against the salary cap. Taylor signed a four-year, $80 million deal with Kansas City ahead of the 2023 season, and he started 45 regular-season games for the team. Taylor also started seven playoff contests, helping the Chiefs win the 2023 Super Bowl. Taylor, however, was top-three in penalties at his position in every season he spent with KC.
